The Big Bad Wolf Book Sale, known as the biggest book sale in the world, returns to the Philippines and is now in Davao City.
Just in time for the year-end festivities, the sale will be bringing a million books to Davaoeños. 20,000 titles will be on sale at 50% – 90% discounts.
“After witnessing how excited people in the Philippines are when it comes to books at our sales in Manila and Cebu, we decided that we must bring the sale to Davao, which readers have enthusiastically requested. We are happy to be coming to Davao,” shared Andrew Yap, Founder of the Big Bad World Book Sale.
“Reading opens up doors to many different opportunities. It allows readers to be creative, imaginative, and empowers people to be a better version of themselves. We hope that through our Sale, we will soon build a new generation of readers because it is our mission to change the world one book at a time,” Yap furthered.
The Big Bad Wolf Book Sale, in a commitment to make books more accessible to everyone, will be donating books through their Red Readerhood Programme to Gawad Kalinga (GK). BBW had also donated Php 5 million to support Gawad Kalinga’s outreach programs.
“Books can inspire and change lives. We are grateful to be partnering with Big Bad Wolf Book Sale to provide Gawad Kalinga community libraries with quality books. Through this, we hope to encourage a culture of reading in indigent communities and help them in terms of English literacy and provide more learning opportunities,” said Luis Oquiñena, Executive Director of Gawad Kalinga.
The Sale will be held at The Tent in Azuela Cove, Davao City on November 23 to December 2, 2018. A special 1-day preview will be held on November 22, 2018 for VIP Pass holders. The Sale will be open for 24 hours during its duration and has FREE ADMISSION.
